A. 
Any drain or conveyance, whether on the surface or subsurface, that allows nonstormwater discharge, including, but not limited to, sewage, processed wastewater, and wash water to enter a small MS4 or to enter the surface waters of this commonwealth is prohibited.
B. 
No person in the Borough shall allow or cause to allow stormwater discharges into the Borough's municipal separate storm sewer system which are not composed entirely of stormwater, except discharges allowed under a state or federal permit.
C. 
Discharges which may be allowed under the Borough's NPDES permit based on a finding by the Borough that the discharge(s) do not significantly contribute to pollution to surface waters of the commonwealth by the Borough are:
(1) 
Discharges from firefighting activities.
(2) 
Potable water sources, including water line and fire hydrant flushing, if such discharges do not contain detectable concentrations of total residual chlorine (TRC).
(3) 
Uncontaminated water from foundation or from footing drains.
(4) 
Flows from riparian habitats and wetlands.
(5) 
Lawn watering.
(6) 
Uncontaminated irrigation drainage.
(7) 
Pavement wash waters where spills or leaks of toxic or hazardous materials have not occurred (unless all spill material has been removed) and where detergents are not used.
(8) 
Routine external building wash-down (which does not use detergents or other compounds).
(9) 
Uncontaminated air conditioning condensate and water from geothermal systems.
(10) 
Water from individual residential car washing where cleaning agents are not utilized.
(11) 
Dechlorinated swimming pool discharges (pursuant to PADEP requirements).
(12) 
Springs.
(13) 
Uncontaminated groundwater.
(14) 
Uncontaminated water from crawl space pumps or sump pumps.
(15) 
Diverted stream flows.
D. 
In the event that the Borough subsequently determines that any of the discharges identified in § 158-44C of this chapter degrade the quality of waters of the commonwealth or U.S. by the Borough, then the Borough will notify the responsible person to cease the discharge.
E. 
Upon notice provided by the Borough under § 158-44D, the discharger will have a reasonable time to cease the discharge consistent with the degree of pollution caused by the discharge.
F. 
Nothing in this section shall affect a discharger's responsibility under state law.
A. 
Prohibited connections. The following connections are prohibited, except as provided in § 158-44C above:
(1) 
Any drain or conveyance, whether on the surface or subsurface, which allows any non-stormwater discharge, including sewage, process wastewater, and wash water, to enter the regulated small MS4 or the waters of the commonwealth, and any connections to the storm drain system from indoor waste water drains and sinks; and
(2) 
Any drain or conveyance connected from a commercial or industrial land use to the regulated small MS4 which has not been documented in plans, maps, or equivalent records, and approved by the Borough.
B. 
This prohibition expressly includes, without limitation, connections made in the past, regardless of whether the connection, drain or conveyance was previously allowed, permitted, or approved by a government agency, or otherwise permissible under law or practices applicable or prevailing at the time of connection.
A. 
Roof drains must not be connected to streets, sanitary or storm sewers, or roadside ditches and shall discharge to infiltration areas or vegetative BMPs to the maximum extent practicable to satisfy the criteria for disconnection of impervious surfaces. Roof drains may be connected to streets, storm sewers or roadside ditches when it is more advantageous and when those facilities ultimately discharge to stormwater BMPs or water quality facilities. This shall be permitted on a case by case basis by the Borough and only when approved by the Borough Engineer.
B. 
Sump pumps shall not be discharged directly to Borough streets or roadside ditches, or connected to the sanitary sewer system. Overland flow and infiltration/percolation of stormwater from a discharge from sump pumps shall be promoted where site conditions allow. Developers and/or property owner may connect to the storm sewer system only upon approval by the Borough. The cost of connecting to the storm system shall be the responsibility of the property owner, and all work shall be performed as directed by the Borough. If a storm sewer is not available for connection, then the property owner must pursue other options for discharge, including the construction of a seepage pit or on-site stormwater management facilities. Any deviation from this requirement will only be permitted on a case-by-case basis after review and approval by the Borough and/or the Borough Engineer.
No person shall throw, deposit, leave, maintain, keep, or permit to be thrown, deposited, left, or maintained, in or upon any public or private property, driveway, parking area, street, alley, sidewalk, or other component of the Borough's municipal separate storm sewer system, any refuse, rubbish, garbage, litter, or other discarded or abandoned objects, articles, and accumulations, so that the same may cause or contribute to pollution. Waste deposited in streets in proper waste receptacles for the purposes of collection is exempted from this prohibition.
A. 
No person shall modify, remove, fill, landscape, or alter any existing stormwater management BMP, unless part of an approved maintenance program, and written approval of the Borough has been obtained.
B. 
No person shall place any structure, fill, landscaping or vegetation into a stormwater management facility or BMP or within a drainage easement, without the written approval of the Borough.
